If you follow me with any degree of attention, you will have noticed that Antonia has been one of my favorite models ever since I photographed her for the first time. As a rule, we arrange a shooting date without discussing what the result should be beforehand. Most of the time we both don’t even know what the result should be. I often try to get some flowers at the weekly market beforehand. Without having any preferences which flowers it should be. For this shoot, our rough idea was to drape the flowers on her body with cling film. So we started exactly with the cling film. After we did that, my eyes fell on a ball of knitting yarn that I had already bought for another shoot. I had the spontaneous idea of wrapping Antonia very lightly with this yarn and attaching the flowers to it. Since the yarn was the same color as the bondage rope we used on our first shoot, I thought this was a good idea as it came full circle, at least in my mind. This is the result.

When I upload the pictures here, I keep asking myself: is it nude? Is it conceptual? Or is it black and white? Finally, it’s a conceptual nude in black and white, but I have to decide on one theme. This time I decided to do nudes, because most people perceive me as a nude photographer.
